iOS 10 Beta Problems Discovered So Far

iOS 10 is currently in beta stage and is only intended for developers. However, that has not stopped many advanced users from jumping the gun and installing the beta on their iPhone or iPad. Being in beta stages, it is a given that the OS is filled with bugs and has stability and performance issues.

If you have not already, follow this article to install the iOS 10 beta on your iPhone or iPad. And if you are not a developer, you can still install the iOS 10 beta on your device by following these steps.

In this article, we highlight some of the most common issues and problems that beta iOS 10 users have reported since installing the OS on their device.

General bugs

Using Force Touch to reply to a SMS from the Lock Screen results in the reply window freezing that cannot be exited by pressing the Home button or by any other interaction. The only solution to this problem is to restart your iOS device once

Taking screenshots of the new Lock Screen can lead to the device restarting itself

Once an alarm has been stopped, it continues to remain on the Lock Screen as “snoozing” with a negative amount of time

With the Reduced Motion setting enabled, performance in certain system apps like Safari can be slow and choppy

Turning off sounds for the Keyboard also turns off haptic feedback

Some widgets have rendering issue in the Today view and are cut off from the edges

In iMessage, sending more than 3 emoji will lead them to be send in the normal text size and not the enlarged bubble as Apple had demoed

Safari has some rendering problems that leads to images being garbled

Even if you are interacting with any notification on the Lock screen, it does not stop the screen from timing out after 30 seconds

Replying to a iMessage from the Lock screen leads to the device notifying of the message again

Facebook application crashes while trying to uploading photos/videos. This is likely due to the app not being optimised for iOS 10 though

Static noise when the device is connected to speakers using the 3.5mm audio jack

Some users are reporting random resprings and reboots

Siri crashes if you ask it your name

The Transit settings menu in Apple Maps show ‘localised strong not found’

The ‘Update All’ button in the iOS App Store does not work. You have to manually install updates for each app

The Photos app does not show the location of your synced photos

Random standby battery drain

Multitasking with a lot of apps open can cause apps to start crashing

The App Store is taking considerably longer to load and display results for many

Phone shuts off with battery to spare, but shows that it needs to be connected to a charger before it can boot again

The PPTP VPN type option from VPN configuration has been removed. It remains unclear if this is a bug or an intentional move from Apple

Bluetooth audio stutters and comes out garbled

The Lock sound plays even if it is turned off in Settings

While selecting an alarm tune, the default alarm tone will continue playing until you force close the app

iPad

Changing the orientation can sometimes lead the 9.7″ iPad Pro to lock its orientation. This can then only be fixed by restarting the device

There are a lot of audio issues on the 9.7-inch iPad Pro, with the audio totally cutting off sometimes when headphones are plugged in

The first 2 for the iPad Pro 9.7" and the only one that I have experienced so for on my 6S+ is the random battery drain... The Facebook thing is across many different social media apps, most likely not being fully compatible, but also possibly new permissions and system accessible options in iOS

Went back to 9.3.2 and will probably stay here. Not a fan of having to press the home button to wake and then again to unlock. Also when going back to iOS 9 I can no longer find modmyi app in the App Store!! Any suggestions? It didn't even download from a previous iCloud back up.

If an app is removed from the App Store, but you purchased it previously, you can still find it in the App Store app by going to the Purchased section and searching for it in there.

O.K, so I have used this technique with many apps previously that have been pulled. I do have the ModMyi app on both my iPhone & iPad, but now that you challenged me, I searched for it in the AppStore & it isn't coming up for me either. However, something odd is that I restored my iPhone only 2 days ago from iTunes backup & the ModMyi app restored. I have an older version in my iTunes library on my Mac, not the newer version with newer icon that I have installed.

It's not available on the app store whatsoever. They even pulled it from the downloads section.
